Let [Formula: see text] be a general generated coherent system of type [Formula: see text] on a general non-singular irreducible complex projective curve. A conjecture of D. C. Butler relates the semistability of [Formula: see text] to the semistability of the kernel of the evaluation map [Formula: see text]. The aim of this paper is to obtain results on the existence of generated coherent systems and use them to prove Butler’s Conjecture in some cases. The strongest results are obtained for type [Formula: see text], which is the first previously unknown case.
